With the help of Shane Williams (who received a message and showed me how it
passed his SA ok) I figured out the following:
Courier formats it's received lines like this (this trips
RCVD_IN_DYNABLOCK):
Received: from bigass1.XXX.com ([66.199.X.X])
by slim1.XXX.com with esmtp; Tue, 06 Jan 2004 23:56:09 +0000
Received: from a1200 ([24.83.X.X])
(AUTH: LOGIN [EMAIL PROTECTED])
by bigass1.XXX.com with esmtp; Tue, 06 Jan 2004 23:56:09 +0000
Shane I presume (by version numbers) is running sendmail - which has a
different Received format and DOESN'T trip RCVD_IN_DYNABLOCK:
Received: from bigass1.XXX.com (ns1.XXX.com [66.199.X.X])
by fiat.XXX.edu (8.12.10/8.12.10) with ESMTP id
i06MBJ6U020255
for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 6 Jan 2004 16:11:19 -0600
Received: from a1200 ([24.83.X.X])
(AUTH: LOGIN [EMAIL PROTECTED])
by bigass1.XXX.com with esmtp; Tue, 06 Jan 2004 22:09:53 +0000
So for starters, the "-notfirsthop" option seems to be missing my first
header.
And for seconds... I will still have a problem when my first header is
AUTHENTICATED.
If I send mail to myself, my ONLY received header looks like:
Received: from a1200 ([24.83.X.X])
(AUTH: LOGIN [EMAIL PROTECTED])
by bigass1.XXX.com with esmtp; Tue, 06 Jan 2004 23:56:09 +0000
Which I think should be ignored - although headers can be forged, the first
header can't - right? And if it says authenticated, I shouldn't be penalized
for sending mail to myself - right?
So now what - do I file a bug report ? or have I already put the info in the
right place?
Thanks a bunch for the tool - glad to do my bit - I imagine that this
problem affects all courier users. Unless I'm missing something?
Thanks!

Hi, Mitch.
Could you please provide more information regarding the mail server which is
running SpamAssassin? Information such as which MTA it's using, how you're
calling SpamAssassin (procmail, milter, etc.), and whether the machine is on
a private NATed address will be helpful in troubleshooting your problem.
Thanks.
Brian
